China LEDs

Thecouchlock said:

I agree with you on some level PSUAGRO however I purchased over 5k worth of quality lights only to have one burn out within 3 months. I can't afford to keep replacing and the warranty shit is the biggest pain in the ass I have ever experienced. So instead of continuing the headache I purchased a couple of chinese leds to see how long they last and if they last ill get more. The thing is man if your buying leds from someone here they are using parts from china and wether your chinese or american putting together the lights if its a failure its a failure.

Can I ask what company??........your right almost all the led panels have Chinese parts including Hans. Only a handful make/build quality panels in-house on the market.

to be fair China being able to just land their own rover on the moon is quite the accomplishment on your first try

Almost all the Chinese LED grow lights works , the point is their quality . Just like All HPS , MH work well . But the quality is different .

just ordered mine today!!! 6x 300w panels... gonna start a grow journal...

New to this but I dont see why some have hate for chinese products? Lol most of these leds are from china and repackaged saying usa made lol and its very known most U.S. made products are not necessarily built to last, cars for example, so why the hate?
I just dont understand the love for american made products lol im american myself but Im out for the best product for my money and everything I have red points to china lol

I dont have specific examples, but just go to eBay, theres 100s of people saying its american made, and 100% fact even if its made by Americans not all parts are american, thus how can it be american? Lol and I use lol cause I think ppl are funny
I know there are bum products everywhere and I know a lot of chinese products are cheaper made but that doesnt mean they cant go toe to toe with all mighty usa

Assembled in the US and made in the US...are the same thing in the magical LED world....so they claim it as absolute truth...the would-be LED purchaser has to sift through crap to find anything of value

Most of the marketing by LED companies has morphed into a radical blur inside my warped chasm that is thy self.... AKA i disregard marketing shit...

We are on the same page now, its all about marketing so its really hard to find honesty in a world revolved around green and not the good kind
I try to fight through the bs as much as I can and so I figured I might as well order one from china, ive ordered the mars ii any thoughts on that? I just saw a forum they were one of the sponsors and read into it, I figured if the product was bogus the customer service rep would have packed her bags and left by now...
I have a cabinet grow so hid wasnt a choice and im a pretty broke college student so 210 seems perfecr for the badically 200 watt light, how do you feel about topled products? Grow journals are impressive but an unbiasef opinion would be nice

Hmmmm...ok...i'll start by saying that i've never bought a panel in my life....so i will not be the one to comment on this panel...

I know Cree chips are good....(as i have used them) and i use a few Chinese diodes aswell...driven to my specs...

I dont trust grow journals from people i havent associated (or spied upon.. ) on the forums for a while (by an large...few exceptions to this..)

Marketing and customer service reps are the same thing....thats their job...and their product is alwayz the best...

our Point is not where the products are made . We are here to remind that people stay away those Chinese terrible quality products . Waste your time and money .

I have heard cree is the best as well, I will learn how to build my own in the future as well, just trying not to burn the house down for now although ive heard topled has started fires, I know my product would be more of a fire hazard.
You're dead on about the marketing aspect but thats where my somewhat trust in the product came from. Their marketing is more customer first based and ive never heard "we are the best" but more of "we want to be the best, and prove china can make quality products"
That can be marketing too but im stuck since idk how to make my own. I appreciate the input ive received so I compare it to LeBron James and Kevin Durant,lebron proclaims to be the best and will go down as fourth best of all time, whereas Durants got that hunger and will to be the best while doing things for more than himself, so I like the idea that they want to be the best, and will make custom panels for cheap.
But only time will tell which will be greater in leds. But im pretty biased towards humbleness and will to be better

what model TOP led have you heard because those "generic"models on their web page are all over the net...

Doing things for more than himself? Really? There is no better teammate in the league than LeBron James. Talk about seeing what you want to see, lol. Anyway, back to discussing LED's.
